Acute Tonsilitis
Hola! Surprised to see me in the comfort of my home? Hehehe. Well, that's because, I'm on MC once again and this time round, it's a freaking 5 days!!! :P Yeps, this is all due to me being down with Acute Tonsilitis. :( I was supposed to book in back to camp yesterday but I was feeling super down so I decided to do a quick check at Changi General Hospital, instead. Turns out, I was diagnosed with the illness and was given the MC so that I can really rest at home. As if I haven't been resting at home all these while, no? Hahaha...
I have no idea how I got this illness but what I know is, all these while, I've already had the symptoms like fever/cough/headache/sore throat and so on. But, instead of linking the symptoms to my current illness, everyone simply said (the doctors in camp especially) that I may have H1N1. Thus, I'm always sent back home (quarantine for a week) and even had to do the nasal swab, twice! I really see those moves as unnecessary. True, it's just a precautionary measure but how can someone develop the symptoms over and over? There must be something else that is wrong, no? Teehee...
So yeah, kudos to the doctor at CGH who managed to look beyond everything and spotted the real illness I'm currently down with. I'm really relieved to know everything. At least, I'm no longer guessing whether I have H1N1 or what nots. Hehe. Still, I believe my immune system is still not that good so I will take care of myself and consume all the medicine prescribed. Weird thing is, even though I'm not down with H1N1, I still have to take Tamiflu which I really dread. There are soooo many side effects, ok! God... we'll see how it all goes... Pray for my speedy recovery, ya'll! Thanx. :)
Regards, Niz
